Introduction
Our society is undergoing deep transformations and each incremental change whether in technology or communication is having a domino effect in shaping our current reality.
As people, we trying to make sense of the change to prepare for future challenges. Making sense of the world requires understanding which requires information that turns into knowledge and when internalized becomes insights.It is this alchemy that makes educators relevant and education energized.
The Post-truth world where a flat earth society can flourish points to the fact that there seems to be a very thin line between fact and fiction.
Competing narratives, fake news, hidden agendas, dwindling attention spans, the pursuit of convenience makes matters more complicated.
Viewing an ever-increasing complex world through a lens of overspecialization is distorting reality even further and is making research limited to publications in easy journals. The book “ Global Business Environment – Shifting Paradigms in the Fourth Industrial Revolution” lays the contextual and interdisciplinary framework for understanding the complex environment for today’s society and business.
